History

VIA Architecture was the architecture firm responsible for designing the station. In 2018, TransLink announced that Yaletown–Roundhouse station, as well as two other Canada Line stations located in downtown Vancouver, would receive an accessibility upgrade which includes additional escalators. Construction began on January 28, 2019, and was completed by July.
